Cooking Steps

Roast the chicken
1

• See ‘Top Roast Tips!’ (below left). 
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil 
the kettle. Season half chicken with a good 
pinch of salt and pepper.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil 
over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, skin
side down, until browned, 5 minutes per side. 
Transfer to a lined oven tray, skin-side up, and 
top with half the butter. Keep the frying pan 
with leftover chicken fat for later.
• Roast chicken until cooked through,  
35-45 minutes. Rest for 5-10 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer 
pink inside.  

Make the mash
2

• While the chicken is roasting, half-fill a medium 
saucepan with boiling water and a generous 
pinch of salt.
• Peel and chop potato into large chunks. Cook 
potato in boiling water until easily pierced with 
a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to pan. 
• Add the milk, salt and remaining butter, then 
mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm. 
TIP: Leave the skin on the potato for extra fibre and 
to save time.

Get prepped
3

• While the potato is cooking, trim baby rainbow 
carrots and slice any thicker carrots in  
half lengthways.
• Slice prosciutto (see ingredients) in  
half lengthways.
• Pick thyme leaves.

Roast the carrots & prosciutto
4

• Place carrots on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle 
with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and 
toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer and roast 
for 10 minutes.
• Remove tray from oven, add prosciutto to the 
tray and roast until the carrots are tender and 
prosciutto is crispy, 5-10 minutes. 

Cook the thyme sauce
5

• While the chicken is resting, return the frying 
pan with chicken fat to medium-high heat. Cook 
baby spinach leaves, stirring, until softened,  
1-2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Return frying pan to medium heat, then add 
cream (see ingredients), chicken-style stock 
powder, any chicken resting juices and a 
generous pinch of pepper. Simmer until slightly 
thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Stir in thyme. 

Finish & serve
6

• Divide potato mash, baby rainbow carrots and 
spinach between plates. 
• Top with roast chicken.
• Pour over thyme sauce and sprinkle with crispy 
prosciutto to serve. Enjoy!
